Originally the female CEO of a high-end catering brand, Xia Enruo drowned while vacationing in Hainan to watch the underwater starry sky and transmigrated to the 1980s. Her past life was full of gl...
Xia Enruo has almost finished preparing the necessary items for opening the laundry shop. There's nothing else she hasn't thought of yet, but she'll buy it later.
I need to hurry up and collect the clothes to make some money today. I'll try my luck at the medical university first and see what the market prospects are like.
She had prepared a wooden board long ago, painted it black, and wrote the words "Meijiajing Laundry Shop" in large characters with chalk.
The implication is that someone is wearing clothes they washed themselves, looking both beautiful and clean, and surprisingly, the word they came up with is quite good.
When Gu Shaoxuan saw the shop name Xia Enruo came up with, he thought it was quite good and really fit the context.
He suddenly remembered something else: Xia Enruo's handwriting was much better than before, and her way of speaking and choice of words clearly indicated that she was a high-achieving student.
He asked.
"Enruo, your handwriting is so beautiful now. Why didn't you write properly before? Why did you have to write so crookedly like a primary school student?"
Xia Enru broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this. Gu Shaoxuan had still noticed that she was different from the original owner. How could she get away with it? Looking at his eyes, which were filled with an urgent need for an answer, she really had no idea.
"Well... didn't I already say that the death of my parents was a huge blow to me? I'm in a bad mood, so naturally I don't want to do anything, not even write anything."
Gu Shaoxuan listened thoughtfully, realizing that the deaths of his father-in-law and mother-in-law had a significant negative impact on his wife.
"Oh, right, and..."
Gu Shaoxuan thought of something else he wanted to ask Xia Enruo, but Xia Enruo interrupted him directly.
"Stop asking, I haven't even asked you yet! I'll give you 20 yuan and put it under your pillow, but you have to give me back my little jade pendant keychain."
Upon hearing this, Gu Shaoxuan realized that his wife wanted to sever ties with him and that they owed each other nothing.
"Ah...that. I can't find it right now. I'll give it to you when I remember where I put it. Oh, and I've put the 20 yuan in your pocket. We're a couple, we don't lend each other money."
Gu Shaoxuan knew that the keychain was in his uniform trouser pocket. It was his wife's most precious possession, and also his own. Having it by his side was like having his wife by his side.
"You're such a grown man, yet your memory isn't very good. Looks like I'll have to cook you some more meat to help your brain recover. As for that 20 yuan, I said it was a loan, and it's a loan. I don't want to owe you any favors."
We're nominally a couple, but that's only temporary. Didn't we agree that we'd separate eventually?
Xia Enru thought to herself that she had finally managed to get away with it and shouldn't ask any more questions.
"Enruo, I've made up my mind, I..."
Xia Enruo thought Gu Shaoxuan was going to ask her again if she was different from before, so she quickly said:
"Gu Shaoxuan, let's talk about this later. I need to get ready to go out. If you keep talking, the whole day will be over."
Gu Shaoxuan opened his mouth wide, the words just about to come out. He wanted to say that he didn't want a divorce anymore and wanted to spend his life with Xia Enruo.
Xia Enruo wrote the laundry price on the board, settled Gu Shaoxuan in, and headed towards the medical university with the prepared items.
The green trees on both sides spread outwards from the flower bed, resembling a university from the 1980s. It was the first time she had ever seen such a place, and the buildings on campus were all in the Soviet style.
It really does look quite old.
There were many students coming and going, chatting and laughing in groups of two or three with their books in hand.
Sure enough, it's only been a few years since the college entrance examination was reinstated, and the age gap among college students is already huge. Some look very young, while others look like teachers.
Xia Enruo found a crossroads on campus, put the sign on the ground, and sat on a small stool to call out her wares.
"Laundry, laundry. Meijiajing Laundry provides laundry services at affordable prices. They use brand-name laundry detergents that effectively remove stains and even have a pleasant fragrance."
The students passing by were seeing this kind of hawking for the first time and were quite surprised. They were used to seeing vendors selling boxed lunches or fruit, and this was the first time they had heard someone hawking laundry services.
Some students gathered around and asked:
How much do you charge for laundry services here?
"Jeans and shirts cost 30 cents each, sweaters and dresses cost 50 cents each, and cotton-padded jackets cost 1 yuan."
Xia Enruo explained.
"Is it clean?"
"Don't worry, I use brand-name laundry detergents, such as Shandandan and Tianjin Jiamei. They are big brands with advertisements on the market. The clothes I wash with smell much better than those washed with soap, and they are clean and soft."
"What if you take our clothes and run away? How am I supposed to find you? We've been scammed!"
"That's right, that's right."
Several students asked with concern.
"Don't worry, everyone. My family lives in the military family compound, which is two streets behind our school. I'm a military wife, and I would never lie. You can find me in the compound. My name is Xia Enruo."
The students shook their heads. This business was indeed novel, but they still felt uneasy and dispersed.
"Let's forget about it and hurry up and go buy some boxed lunches, or they'll be gone if we're late."
Buying boxed lunches? These three words jolted Xia Enruo to her core.
She pulled the student aside and asked:
"Little sister, I want to ask you, what do you want to buy?"
"Buying a boxed lunch?"
"Aren't we going to the cafeteria to get food?"
When the girl saw Xia Enruo ask that question, she figured Xia Enruo must be new and didn't even know that.
"Sometimes we go to the cafeteria to get food, and sometimes we buy boxed lunches. There are many small carts selling boxed lunches on the street near the school gate at noon. Not only do they have a variety of dishes, but they also taste better than the ones at school, and the prices are not expensive. If you want to eat, you can go and take a look in a while. We have to hurry over, otherwise all the dishes we want will be sold out."
